This started off right where "State of Pursuit" finished. Right from the get-go it was filled with action, bloodshed and horror.
Loved how Elle and Bravo - From the spin-off "Zero" series - became part of the "Freedom Fighters". She's such a Badass!
Sophia though..
One thing that annoyed the shit outta me - Cassidy. Goddamn girl. You're in the middle of war! Why you stressin' over yo mans past?! Ugh.

This series continues to be an action packed, 100% clean Young Adult/NA post-apocalyptic series that I very much enjoy! There's never much down time and the rare moments of perceived safety and contentment are short lived.

I thought that this was the last book in the series but I'm so thrilled that it's not. Which is odd, because I usually have a rule that I don't read series' with 5+ books.
I forgot how much I loved Cassie and Chris. They're so adorable. This book was super action-packed. No filler here! Where a couple of the books failed in the characterization department, this book excelled. I feel like I know Cassie so much better now.

I think this has to be one of my favorite Collapse Series books. Summer Lane does an excellent job fleshing out her characters and giving them added depth which makes the stories she tells even better. I have seen the characters evolve and feel as if the characters are old and well-liked friends. I liked the change of scenery and the way the author used the different terrains as story telling tools. Not only did those details enhance the story, they seemed to become part of the story itself.

I love this series! The adventures of Cassie and Chris and crew continue. We get explosions, death and betrayal, from the least likely sources.
Cassie has changed beyond recognition from the girl we first found, sure she could take care of herself but continually having to be rescued. She is now the Commander and the Senator from California. And she is a lethal sniper. Omega is still the enemy, all around, on top and within us, causing chaos, death and destruction.

I thought the story line was great and totally realistic of the not so distant future.
There were a few small things, mostly petty, that I didn't like about the series so far; the books seem short. Maybe I'm just used to reading longer books? I'm not sure. There was a lot of repetitiveness in the last three books. All five of them have been somewhat predictable.
Cassie and Chris' love story seems a bit more teen fiction than YA. There is no lack of action in this series. There is always some kin ...more

These books are so quick I read this one in a matter of hours. Ms. Lane's apocalypse continues to be insightful and realistic. Cassidy's progression has come full tilt she is now leader and senator of California on a mission to join the Pacific Northwest Alliance and take back the country from the evil Omega forces. But of course nothing goes as expected and at this point you would think Cassie and Chris would decide that no place no matter how well armed is untouchable by Omega forces. But of c

This is a great series
This book ended with a small twist, that I did not see coming. This series is written so well. The author builds characters, but does it in a way which allows her to keep the story going. She never strays from the characters in the book. I also enjoy how her other series is coming through this one. I was so excited that she wrote a book six and seven. I cannot wait to see where this story goes.

In my heart and mind I fight side by side with Cassie and Chris. I cry for their losses and cheer for their victories. The enemy within can be so brutal....but the warrior, the champion also resides within, and in the end..... ...more

Great book.
I am really enjoying this series but the books read really fast. The story is riveting and full of action which makes it hard to put down.

I was afraid this book was yet more of the same fighting but in the end it still managed to surprise me!
The 5th episode in the Collapse Saga was a slightly different book to the others in the series. For starters, it was a bit slower than the first books in the series. But although there was a little less action (and not by much I might add), it made up for this in Character development. This was the book in which Cassidy finally seemed to evolve from teenage girl into Commander – or more importantly Senator – Hart. Whilst in earlier evolutions of the Collapse series she has taken Command of Milit

I'm going about 3.75 stars here. Solid action throughout.
Mind games aplenty. It's nice to see how Elle Costas (from Lane's Day sub-trilogy) gets woven into the fabric of this story after her own adventures after the EMP goes off. And good grief, when is something good going to happen to Cassidy? Yikes. I know this is war and all, but she can use a respite of some kind, any kind. Even for ten minutes. I hope to God Cassidy's dad is still alive. The only real downside in this book (for me) is the ...more

Some thoughts as I read this book.
1. It is NOT called the Coronado Naval Station. It is North Island. This is really bugging me in the book.
2. I wanted to puke as Cassidy was admiring a mission. Later though it mentioned how Omega wants to enslave everyone, so I am hoping that the mission part w/ Cassidy admiring it, was on purpose because the irony is so great. However, I am thinking the truth is probably that the author doesn't know the real story of the missions. I would like to know though. ...more

Ok
So there are a lot of actions in the book that happens to the main character that are hard to go with. I really wish she was supposed to be 22 or 23 so that the story would be more believable.
